Uber is committing to becoming an "anti-racist company," including investing $10 million in helping Black-owned small businesses.published Friday, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi said the company "must do more" to combat racial inequality, both within its ranks and in the communities it serves.
"You're probably thinking that Uber is not exactly the company you'd expect to be speaking up on this front," he wrote. "But after a lot of reflection and change over the last few years, we continue to challenge ourselves to be a different and better company." Additionally, Uber is pledging to invest $10 million over two years to help Black-owned small businesses, offering promotions and "other merchant support." Uber is also waiving the delivery fee for Black-owned restaurants for the rest of the year.

How about you pay your drivers a living wage you thief dkhos! Drivers earn less than working at McDonalds. That's not fair.
